Best Of 2013 | Wilmington, NC Wedding & Portrait Photographer

Good day blog stalkers! I hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas followed by an even better New Years! We’re enjoying a bit of down time here preparing for our batch of 2014 weddings. I was incredibly greatful to have worked with so many amazing couples throughout 2013, and I am looking forward to the many more I will work with in 2014. I’ve decided to go through my images from 2013 and post of a series of my favorite images. Some personal, some from weddings, engagements, family portraits, etc. I’m not the best at picking favorites, so there are quite a few, but I think you will enjoy looking back on my year.

Now without further ado, here is my 2013 Year in Images (In no particular order). Enjoy!

Ross+Leina | Wedding | Fort Fisher Air Force Recreation Area

Ross & Leina got married on a beautiful September day at the Beach House Bar & Grill on the grounds of the Fort Fisher Recreation Center, overlooking the Cape Fear River. The weather couldnt of been any better. We started the day at the Fort Fisher Historic site to shoot Ross & Leina’s first look and some bridal party portraits before heading to the ceremony/reception site. After a beautiful ceremony on the banks of the Cape Fear, we proceeded on to the Bar & Grill for the reception. Ross & Leina had hands down one of the best reception entances I have ever seen! The day was capped off with some dancing and a spectacular sunset, a fitting way to start my fall wedding season.

Dan+Jessica | Engagement | Fort Fisher, NC Photographer

Dan & Jessica are from Ohio. Jessica has been vacationing on Pleasure Island for many years now, and since her first visit, she knew it was the perfect place to get married. I can’t blame her. These two were a blast to work with, Dan had us all cracking up the whole time and it really helped bring out those great, natural smiles you’ll see below. Their whole family was in town vacationing and both Dan & Jessica’s mothers joined us as we toured around the scenic areas of Fort Fisher for their engagement session. Can’t be happy enough to shoot their wedding in March of next year.

Keith + Heather | Wedding | Courtyard Marriott, Carolina Beach, NC

Courtyard Marriott Carolina Beach WeddingI had the pleasure of shooting Keith & Heather’s wedding in May at the Courtyard Marriott at Carolina Beach, North Carolina. You’ll probably remember Keith & Heather’s awesome engagement session down at Fort Fisher last fall. I also shot Keith’s sister’s wedding last June. So there were a lot of familiar faces at their wedding. The weather turned out great and everything went off without a hitch. Here’s a bit of what went down.
